Hi all, my wife wishes to use the models she has for 8th Ed that she had planned to use for WFB back then when it was a thing. So she's going for a 1500 pts list with the models she owns, only thing she doesn't have now are the Thousand Sons. She'd like to play a mix of maybe 60/40 Khorne and Tzeentch in the long term, using the Khorne Daemons for the CC and the Tzeentch/Chaos units for long range support, to fill the gaps of a pure Khorne army. So for now she's thinking about including a unit of Rubric Marines to have a decent and resilient shooting unit, and because the models are awesome. She won't be playing tournaments or anything but we're aiming at a solid and non-cheesy list to play at our LGS. Here's her first draft list:

Batallion Detachment (Total 6CP)

HQ:
- Wrath of Khorne Bloodthirster, 340
- 2 Heralds of Khorne, 112

Troops:
- 13 Bloodletters with Banner and Musician, 152
- 13 Bloodletters with Banner and Musician, 152
- 9 Rubric Marines with Inferno Bolters, 180
- 1 Aspiring Sorcerer with Inferno Bolt Pistol and Staff, 31

Fast Attack:
- 5 Flesh Hounds, 100

Elites:
- 3 Bloodcrushers, 141

Heavy Support:
- 2 Skullcannons, 294

Thoughts on this ? She hasn't played her army in 8th yet so we've yet to see how Daemons work on the table. The Bloodthirster looks impressive enough, the Skullcannons are decent anti-tank, the real problem seems to be the footslogging Bloodletters, would it be wiser to summon them on the field to have them be closer ?

Thanks in advance !

Thanks for the suggestions, however the problem is that she owns a Bloodthirster and not Magnus, and she wants to use it (it's a pricey and beautiful model after all), so she won't switch him for Magnus yet She doesn't own any Berserkers either, but intends to buy a Rhino for the Rubricae. The original question was to know if the aforementioned list, which contains almost only the models she currently owns, was a viable list in a casual setting.
